Titanfall 2 is a first-person shootervideo game, developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. A sequel to 2014's Titanfall, the game was released worldwide on October 28, 2016 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. In Titanfall 2, players control Titans, mecha-style exoskeletons and their pilots, who are agile and equipped with a variety of skills ranging from wall-running to cloaking. Set in a science fiction universe, the single-player campaign follows the story of Jack Cooper, a rifleman from the Frontier Militia, who bonds with his mentor's Titan BT-7274 after his mentor is killed. Together, they embark on a quest to stop the Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation (IMC) from launching a superweapon that is threatening to destroy the Militia planet Harmony.
The game's two-year development cycle began in mid-2014. The decision to add a single-player campaign to the game came about because the team wanted to expand the game's player base. They came up with different ideas and prototypes, and integrated them to form a single coherent campaign. Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet and buddy cop films, as well as the video game Half-Life inspired the game's campaign and narrative. The team also overhauled the progression system and made subtle changes to the multiplayer to make the game fairer to players. Valve Corporation's Source engine powers the game. Stephen Barton returned to compose the game's music.
Upon release, the game received critical acclaim. The single-player campaign was praised for its design and execution, and the multiplayer modes for building on the foundation of the original game. Despite the positive reception, Titanfall 2 underperformed commercially, with most attributing its underwhelming performance to it going on sale in a crowded release window, being placed between the release of Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. It was nominated for multiple year-end accolades including Game of the Year and Best Shooter awards, by several gaming publications. Respawn continued to support the game after its release, providing several updates and free downloadable content.
Gameplay[edit]

Similar to its predecessor, Titanfall 2 is a first-person shooter game where players can control both a pilot and their Titans—mecha-style robots that stand roughly seven to ten meters tall. The pilot has a large variety of abilities that enhance their abilities during combat. All pilots have a jump kit which assists with parkour, double-jumping and wall-running.[1] Pilots have more specific abilities unique to each 'class' which augments their offensive and defensive ability, such as a grappling hook for enhanced mobility, or a holographic visual cloaking device. Pilots use their jump kits to run on walls, movements which can be chained together to travel between locations quickly.[2][3] The game introduces several new gameplay mechanics. These include: a movement system that allows players to slide on the ground, the pulse blade (which is a throwing knife that reveals the location of any nearby enemy), the holo-pilot, (a holographic pilot that mimics players' action to confuse enemies), and a grappling hook, which can be used to slingshot players to a building or reel in an enemy it attaches to. The Pilots have a large arsenal of gadgets and weapons, such as shotguns, submachine guns, pistols and grenades to fight their enemies.[4] At close range, players can execute their opponents from behind in a short animation with a melee attack.[5] Melee attacks are always instantly fatal should they connect.
Titans are significantly less mobile than the pilots, but they have stronger firearms and superior protection. Replacing the three classes featured in the first Titanfall, six Titans were introduced at launch—Ion, Scorch, Northstar, Ronin, Tone and Legion, with Monarch being introduced in the May 2017 Monarch's ReignDLC. Ion uses a directed-energy arsenal and makes use of a shield that can catch then reflect enemy projectile attacks. Scorch engages in combat using area-denial incendiary weaponry and indirect-fire thermite mortar. Northstar excels in long-range precision attacks with a charged railgun, and sets movement-restricting traps, and is the only Titan with the ability to leave the ground and hover. Ronin specializes in close quarters combat, using a 'Triple Threat' shotgun and a sword. Tone focuses on mid-range combat with its target locking weapons. Legion uses a rotary cannon designed for sustained fire at both mid- and close-range.[6] Finally, Monarch—added post-release via downloadable content (DLC)—is a Vanguard-class chassis that can steal power from other Titans to power up its own defensive shield.[7] The Titans have their own move sets which are different from those of the pilots—for instance, they can dodge quickly to evade attacks.[8]
Single-player[edit]
Unlike its predecessor, Titanfall 2 has a single-player story campaign with gameplay split between commanding the Titan (BT-7274, voiced by Glenn Steinbaum) and controlling the Pilot (Rifleman Third Class Jack Cooper, voiced by Matthew Mercer).[9] It features a linear story, but levels offer players multiple paths to explore.[10] For most parts of the game the Titan BT-7274 accompanies players, alongside allied NPCs from the universe's Frontier Militia faction (of which BT-7274 and Jack Cooper are a part of). He can change his weapon loadouts under players' command to maximize his efficiency when combating local wildlife, IMC infantry and other Titans. These loadouts are unlocked by finding abandoned equipment in each level, typically before a sequence which will benefit from the player switching to that loadout.[11] Players are able to use multiple ways to complete objectives and attack enemies, such as utilizing Cooper's Pilot stealth ability, jump-kit assisted traversal of the level and using firearms provided in the game. Levels are large, and there are multiple paths for players to choose from to reach their destination.[12] The game also features platform elements, which task players to make use of Cooper's parkour abilities to solve environmental puzzles, and travel to previously inaccessible areas. Some weapons are level-specific and can only be used in certain areas.[1][13] There are also level-specific gameplay mechanics. For instance, in the 'Effect and Cause' level, players are required to shift between the present and past with the 'OPERATION: GRIZZLY' temporal device.[14] Players can also select dialogue options and have Cooper talk to BT-7274 at certain points in the campaign to develop the characters' personalities and often to comedic effect.[15] The single-player also features a training gauntlet, which acts as a tutorial for players. The faster they complete the gauntlet, the higher their position will be on a leaderboard.[16] The Gauntlet has attracted some speedrunning enthusiasts to achieve faster and faster times.
Multiplayer[edit]
The multiplayer mode sees the return of Titanfall's Titan meter, which fills slowly when the player is playing the game. It fills faster when the player kills an opponent, inflicts damage on enemies, or completes the map's objectives such as capturing points in the Hardpoint game mode.[17][18] When a certain percentage of the meter is filled, the player can summon their selected Titan, which descends from the sky in a titular titanfall deployment.[19] A titanfall can crush opponents if it lands on one when summoned and will instantly kill any enemy directly impacted.[20] When the Titan meter is filled completely while in a Titan, the Titan can use their 'tian core' ability, which often takes the form of a special attack or otherwise augments the Titan's abilities.[8] Examples include the Ion-class Titan's Laser Core, which makes the Titan emit a bright red laser attack, or the Monarch-class Titan's Upgrade Core, which upgrades the Titan's abilities, defenses, or primary weapon. Pilots are able to rodeo a Titan similar to the original Titanfall, but rather than attacking a weak point with their weapon Pilots now steal a Titan's battery, causing damage to it and giving the Pilot a Titan battery. The battery can be taken and inserted into a friendly Titan, charging its shield and filling both the Titan's meter and the Pilot player's Titan Meter.[18][21] Players can disembark from their Titan at any time. It will continue attacking nearby opponents under 'follow mode', where the Titan follows the pilot as closely as it can. Players can also set it to 'guard mode' and it will stay put.[8] Finally, the Pilot can activate the Titan's ejection system, destroying the titan (and creating a large explosion if the 'Nuclear Eject' perk is selected in the Titan's loadout) and launching the Pilot high into the air.
Players earn 'merits' based on their performance in a multiplayer match whether their team wins or loses. Merits are experience points through participating in the match or getting access to unlocks. Players need to accumulate merits to level up, which unlocks additional weapons, abilities, customization options and more. There are also other ways to earn merits, like surviving the evacuation phase when the players' team loses a match. Players can also earn Credits, a form of currency used to buy weapons, boosts, Titans, or abilities before they are unlocked. These can be earned by gaining merits and completing challenges.[17] The game's customization options have expanded significantly compared to Titanfall. Players' outfits and weapons, as well as Titans' appearances and combat efficiency, can be extensively customized.[18][22] Boosts replace burn cards featured in the earlier game. They are tactical abilities that enhance the players' combat efficiency. Each boost has its own specific access requirement. Ticks, which are explosive mines that track enemies, for example, require 65% of the Titan meter filled. Amped Weapons, where players inflict more damage with their firearms, need 80%. Players must decide which boost they are going to use before a match begins; they cannot swap their boost during the game.[23]
Titanfall 2 features several multiplayer modes at launch. These modes include:[8]
Matchmaking is also enhanced, with the game automatically helping players to find a new match after the end of every match.[25] The game also introduces a new feature called 'Networks', which allows players to form a group, similar to a guild. The game automatically groups both the player and other members of the network together in a match. Players can join more than one network and can switch between joined networks in-game.[26] Each network has its own 'happy hour'. If the player plays the game during this period, they gain extra merits.[17]
Campaign[edit]Setting[edit]
The game's conflict takes place in 'The Frontier', a region of star systems far removed from the 'Core Systems' where Earth is located. The Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation (IMC) and the Frontier Militia battle for control of the Frontier. The IMC seeks to exploit the Frontier's rich resources regardless of the consequences for planetary environments and civilian populations, while the Militia fight to expel the IMC and gain the Frontier's independence. In the wake of the Battle of Demeter, the Militia is on the offensive, battling for resources and control of the Frontier planets. Though weakened by the lack of reinforcements from the core systems because of the destruction of the refueling facility by James MacAllan, IMC is still a dominant fighting force attempting to drive the Militia out and put down any resistance to their control of the Frontier.
In the singleplayer campaign the player assumes control of Jack Cooper, a lowly rifleman from the Frontier Militia, sent to the alien planet of Typhon as part of an assault on the planet by the Militia, who must join his former mentor captain Tai Lastimosa's Titan—named BT-7274—to fight local alien creatures, human and robotic enemies from the IMC.[15]
Plot[edit]
Jack Cooper is a rifleman in the Militia. He aspires to become a Titan Pilot for the Militia and is receiving off-the-books training from Captain Tai Lastimosa to prepare for his candidacy, spending time in simulation pods that let Cooper move and fight as if a Pilot. The two are part of a Militia force which attacks the IMC-held planet of Typhon. In the initial battle, the Apex Predators, a group of mercenaries contracted to the IMC and led by Blisk, mortally wound Lastimosa and incapacitate his Vanguard-class Titan, BT-7274. Lastimosa transfers control of BT to Cooper. BT explains that Cooper has also inherited Lastimosa's mission, Special Operation 217: to rendezvous with Major Anderson and assist in the completion of their original assignment. Anderson's last known position is at an IMC laboratory. Together they travel through an IMC water reclamation facility and defeat Kane, an unbalanced Pilot of the Apex Predators. BT and Cooper are then forced to detour through an underground Dynamic Test Facility, where they are ambushed and separated. Cooper fights through the facility's terrain assembly complex alone until he is trapped in a live-fire combat exercise being run by the mercenary Ash, who is using captured Militia soldiers as unwilling test subjects to test the potency of IMC Spectre and Reaper drone combat units. Cooper fights his way through the scenario, escapes, and after being reunited with BT, defeats Ash when she attempts to intercept them in her own Titan.
BT and Cooper continue to the IMC laboratory only to find it destroyed, the ruins littered with corpses artificially aged due to a time-space distortion. Anderson is present, though also deceased from a time-travel mishap. Cooper learns Anderson was gathering intelligence on a new IMC device, the 'Fold Weapon', which utilizes time-displacement technology to destroy entire planets. The planet Harmony, which is the home planet of Lastimosa and houses the Militia headquarters, will be the first target. Fortunately for the Militia, the Fold Weapon is dependent upon a power source known as the Ark. Cooper and BT travel to and hijack an IMC communications array to broadcast a message containing this intelligence to the Militia fleet, killing Apex Predator Pilot Richter in the process. The transmission contained sensor data on the Ark's electromagnetic signature so that the Militia could find and seize it.
After receiving the transmission, a Militia unit, the Marauder Corps arrive and reinforce the remains of the Militia forces on Typhon. Commander Sarah Briggs formalizes Cooper's provisional Pilot status at BT-7274's insistence, and then has them join an assault against the IMC-held spaceport where the Ark is being kept. The massed Titan forces break through the heavily fortified IMC defenses but are ultimately too late to prevent the Ark from being loaded onto an IMC transport (the IMS Draconis) by Kuben Blisk and Slone, the Militia give chase in commandeered IMC ships. The Apex Predator Viper intercepts the makeshift pursuit force in a custom flight-capable Northstar-class Titan, quickly wiping out a large number of the pursuing ships, and nearly kills BT and Cooper by shooting down their transport, but freelance Pilot Barker rescues them by catching them with the flat underside of his dropship. Cooper joins with a friendly Militia-aligned mercenary group called the 6-4, and with their leader, Commander Gates, and Pilots Bear, Davis and Droz, the five Pilots secure the IMS Malta, a battleship close behind the IMS Draconis, the transport carrying the Ark. Cooper is infiltrated into the Draconis' rear starboard deck and along with the 6-4 they make their way to the bridge of the Malta to commandeer the vessel. They then face off with Viper on the surface of the Malta. BT and Cooper defeat Viper and the Titans that reinforce him, and attempt to board the IMS Draconis but are again interrupted by the Apex Predator. The following battle results in BT and Cooper being thrown onto the Draconis and BT loses his left arm, but Cooper kills Viper by shooting the Pilot directly after his Titan's armored hatch is blown off in the fight.
Cooper and BT successfully board the Draconis and recover the Ark, and they secure the alien device inside BT's Pilot compartment before the ship crashes. BT becomes incapacitated from damage sustained in his fight with Viper and the crash (which severs his legs), and the duo are captured by Blisk and his second-in-command, Slone. BT surrenders the Ark to save Cooper but his Titan body is critically damaged by Slone for trying to help Cooper escape. However, BT gives Cooper his data core before his Titan chassis fails, and Cooper uses it to resuscitate BT by installing it into a Vanguard chassis provided by Briggs after he escapes captivity and restores communication with Militia forces. Reunited, Cooper and BT fight their way to the base where the Fold Weapon is being prepared for use against Harmony. They kill Slone, earning Blisk's respect; Blisk spares Cooper, stating that the IMC never included killing him in their contract and he does not work for free. He offers Cooper a place in the Apex Predators, leaving a calling card on BT's camera, before departing. BT and Cooper then launch themselves into the Fold Weapon's superstructure where the Ark has already been installed. BT hurls Cooper to safety - having arranged for Barker to meet there - and sacrifices himself; his actions result in the destruction of the Ark, the Fold Weapon and of the planet Typhon itself.
The game ends with a monologue by Cooper, talking about having his status as a Pilot affirmed and being inducted into the Marauder Corps, as well as reminiscing over his experiences with BT.
In a post credits scene, The Titan neural link to Cooper's helmet flashes with the message 'Jack?' encoded in binary, implying that a part of BT survives in Cooper's helmet (which was earlier shown to be capable of storing at least part of BT's AI programming).
Development[edit]
Respawn Entertainment, founded by Vince Zampella, and a team of ninety people developed the game.[27]Titanfall's original director, Steve Fukuda, producer Drew McCoy, and composer Stephen Barton returned for the sequel. Production of the title began in mid-2014 with a two-year development cycle.[28] Publisher Electronic Arts provided funding and marketing support.[29] The game's development was completed on September 29, 2016, with Respawn confirming it had been declared gold, indicating it was being prepared for duplication and release.[30]
Single-player[edit]
Titanfall had a low engagement with players post-release, despite huge initial sales. Fukuda believed the dwindling size of the community was due mainly to the game's lack of a single-player campaign.[29] Zampella confirmed the introduction of a single-player campaign was intended to expand the player base,[31] and McCoy believed this could make the overall package more complete.[32] The team's vision for the campaign was to make it different from other first-person shooters, especially Call of Duty.[29] This proved to be a challenge since many of them had worked at Infinity Ward, the developer of Call of Duty, before joining Respawn and had become accustomed to making a campaign in that style. According to McCoy, the team initially tried putting all the mechanics from the first Titanfall into the campaign, but it did not work out.[33] As a result, the team decided to host many game jams in the studio, where team members were free to create new designs and experiment with technology with few constraints other than adhering to Titanfall's existing mechanics. The team was tasked not to follow traditional shooter campaign's design conventions. Team members were free to build prototypes for it, which would then be integrated to form a coherent campaign. These prototypes were internally referred to as 'action blocks'. They allowed the team to introduce 'ideas after ideas' in the full game since these blocks were often independent of each other and had unique gameplay features. For instance, players would be time traveling in one level and assaulting Titans in the next. These blocks enabled the team to discover new ideas and work out the structure of the overall campaign. Fluidsim festo download gratis. Internally it was called '211' as every level consisted of two parts involving pilot combat, one part involving pilot movement and puzzle solving, and one part involving Titan combat.[29]
Military technologies such as the Boeing AH-64 Apache helicopter inspired the look of BT-7274.
The 'action blocks' approach meant Titanfall 2's gameplay was designed before the story. The team intended making the game similar to the Half-Life series, where a mystery takes center stage in the story, hooking players to continue exploring it and completing the campaign. Portal also influenced the game's design.[31] One of the major components of the campaign is the interactions between Cooper and his Titan BT-7274.[29] Fukuda described it as a 'buddy' story, inspired by buddy cop films like Lethal Weapon or Beverly Hills Cop, as well as animeGargantia on the Verdurous Planet.[34] 'BT' stood for 'Buddy Titan', a name the team hated, but Fukuda insisted on using. To increase the chemistry between the duo, the two characters have opposite personalities: Jack is enthusiastic, while BT is robotic and calm.[35] Cooper was difficult for the team to write since his personality may not align with players' choices or vision for the character.[36] While the team intentionally avoided making BT similar to characters like Optimus Prime or cute robots like Wall-E, they found BT's personality difficult to write, as they had to find a balance between making it 'a lovable partner and a 20-foot-tall war machine'. Early drafts of BT's scripts were deemed too 'bossy', and five writers took five months to rework them. To make BT more human, the team designed a large emotive eye, so players would know where the titan is looking, and a small pair of robotic arms that allow it to interact with other characters in a more natural way. The front of BT is filled with colored paints which inform players of the Titan's head movement.[37] The team added a design choice that let players communicate with BT enabling players to bond with the Titan without using any cutscene.[29] This also provided players with more insights into the game's world,[31] though some staff questioned the decision since Half-Life's protagonist is silenced. To make players feel that Cooper and BT are separate entities even when they are controlling the Titan, the team included several small graphical hints to remind them that BT will still continue to talk to the player character.[36]Akira Kurosawa films and Clint Eastwood and Sam Elliott's cowboy roles inspired animator Shawn Lee Wilson creation of BT's unique physical appearance and expression. The Apache helicopter and other military technologies also inspired BT's design. Wilson provided motion capture for the Titan.[29]
While designing the game's single-player, one of the team's goals was to keep the energy present in Titanfall's multiplayer mode.[38] The team wanted to make the campaign more creative instead of simply having robots in it. Both the unique traits of pilots and Titans had to be used and expanded upon. Therefore, the team decided to create both intricate environments for pilots' transversal and large open space for titan combat, instead of making it a corridor shooter. According to gameplay designer Mohammed Alavi, this gave players greater control and freedom over the character's movement.[36] The team focused a great deal on platforming designed to further expand the use of the pilot movement sets. Many team members created action blocks dedicated to platforming, including ideas such as having players solve puzzles to find a new surface to wall-run on, and Titan being able to throw the pilot, so they could travel over long distances. The concept of Titan throwing pilots was ultimately discarded from the gameplay and became part of a cinematic cutscene because the team had trouble implementing it due to its lack of interactivity.[29] The game also features a variety of puzzles inspired by BioShock and Half-Life, where players maintain 'a certain level of speed' while solving puzzles.[39] There are also puzzles which change the game's pace and require players to stop to think of a solution.[40]
X2's Nightcrawler and the documentary series Life After People inspired the most acclaimed level, 'Effect and Cause', initially an action block created by designer Jake Keating involving time travel. He had the idea before the development of Titanfall. He experimented with it with one of Titanfall's multiplayer maps. The action block was warmly welcomed by the entire development team, with some feeling that it had the potential to be the main feature through the entire game rather than being confined to one level. However, Keating insisted on limiting its use to one level so that the mechanic would not become boring for players.[41] To make the level, the team created two building computer models with one on top of the other. As the player switches timelines, they are teleported from one building to the other. Fukuda added it was the landmark level the team was looking for and it did not need demanding technology. However, the added level created more work for the team since the two buildings, each with different features and characteristics, needed to be built twice.[29]
The game's single-player starts with simple missions before gradually introducing players to more complicated situations which demand more skills and precision.[42] The game story also supplements this, as Cooper transforms from a normal Frontier grunt to a skillful pilot at the end.[29] The campaign was created as a stepping stone for inexperienced players by providing a more 'relaxing' environment that teaches players' the basic gameplay mechanics, training them before they join multiplayer matches.[43]
Multiplayer[edit]
The team evaluated Titanfall and listened to both feedback and analytical research from gaming journalists and identified two major concerns: there was not enough content for players, and at times the game became too chaotic. The team slowed down the gameplay pace of Titanfall 2's multiplayer so that players could actively make decisions relying less on reflex. The team also improved the game's map design by introducing more verticality to each map. Fukuda described it as the 3Dswiss cheese effect. The team also employed the strategy of 'window pane', where each map has three obvious paths: left, middle and right. This helped make each map's environments more predictable to players.[44]Titanfall 2 features a brighter color palette and environments compared to both the first game and contemporary shooter games,[39] as the team aimed for graphical quality that is 'postcard-worthy'.[45] There is also a greater variety of environments featured in the multiplayer maps, ranging from industrial centers, outdoor maps with more foliage, and the return of remastered maps from the first Titanfall game.[46]
There are also various revisions to the game's multiplayer mode. McCoy described these changes as 'subtle' as the team focused more on adding slight modifications to existing mechanics. The Titans were redesigned to have distinct silhouettes unique to each chassis (and thus ability set and weapons) so that players can 'tell at a glance everything that [they] need to know' and stay prepared for each combat encounter.[47] This enabled players to have a clearer picture of the combat situations and facilitated learning from each defeat.[48] The team also introduced cosmetic changes to the pilots and the six Titan class giving them distinct visual characteristics so that players can easily identify an opponent's abilities.[49] The team attempted to add more depth to the gameplay by introducing more Titans, gadgets, weapons, and pilot abilities, allowing players to customize a set of loadouts to suit their preferred playstyle, by creating specialized loadouts (for example a high mobility long ranged combatant by combining a sniper rifle with the mobility-enhancing grapple Pilot ability) or a stealthy Titan-hunter (taking a grenade launcher in addition to an Anti-Titan weapon along with the Cloak kit). These added more variety to the game so there are more things for players to discover and master.[28] The game's extensive customization options and progression system were designed to engage players, so they can 'get the most out of the game'.[43] Like its predecessor, Titans need to be earned using certain gameplay actions such as defeating opponents or completing objectives.
Technology[edit]
The game used a heavily modified version of Valve Corporation's Source as its game engine. Many improvements were made to the engine's aspects such as physically based rendering, a texture streaming system developed in house, high dynamic range and depth of field. The team also made changes to the audio, such as introducing sound occlusion and reverberation.[46] According to John Haggerty, senior software engineer, the team broke part of the engine's code for level progression and saves when they were making the first game. The programming team found it a huge challenge to fix and reinstate these codes to accommodate the sequel's single-player campaign. The team also developed a scripting system from scratch, allowing designers to quickly assemble action blocks.[29] The game's artificial intelligence was significantly enhanced, with new movesets and behaviors for pilots and titans in both single-player and multiplayer modes.[28] As Titanfall 2 was the first game Respawn developed for the PlayStation 4, the engineering team spent a lot of time and effort to get it running on the platform.[46] A virtual reality version of the game was prototyped but never went into full production because, according to Joe Emslie, the player would 'vomit all over their controller.'[26]

Combat animation can be interrupted by players' movement, which gives them more direct control instead of needing to wait for the animation to end.[31] Most Titanfall's pilots' movesets returned in Titanfall 2 but with some slight modifications. For instance, players no longer fall off as they are wall running near the tops of walls. Before players begin to wall run, the game's camera also tilts slightly so that players can anticipate the movement.[50]
Release[edit]
In May 2014, two months after the first game's release, publisher Electronic Arts announced they would collaborate with Respawn Entertainment for more experiences set within the Titanfall universe.[51] A sequel was officially confirmed on March 12, 2015, by Respawn's Vince Zampella at the 12th British Academy Games Awards. He also confirmed the game would come to PlayStation 4, unlike the first one.[52] EA opened their press conference at EA Play 2016 with Titanfall 2, and announced that the game would be released worldwide on October 28, 2016.[53] This meant the title would have to compete with other triple-Afirst-person shooters including Battlefield 1, made by DICE (one of EA's studios), and Activision's futuristic Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, developed by Zampella's old studio Infinity Ward.[54] According to McCoy, the release date was confirmed long before and the team could not change it.[55] The game's Collector's Edition and Vanguard SRS Collector's Edition, which include additional content, were released on the same day as the standard edition.[56]Titanfall 2 was added to EA Access and Origin Access on July 7, 2017.[57] An Ultimate Edition, which bundles the base game and all the updates as well as some bonus content, was released on the same day.[58]
EA partnered with a restaurant and a snack food company to promote the game. Players who purchased food or drink at any Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant received a free customization item and access to a multiplayer mode. Similarly, players who purchased Mountain Dew or Doritos were given a code granting them double XP, early access to a new multiplayer mode, a Titan, and Titan customization items.[59] EA also partnered with toy manufacturer McFarlane Toys to produce a toyline for the game which includes a seven-inch tall Cooper figure and a ten-inch tall BT-7274 figure.[60] Respawn prepared two technical tests for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One users in August 2016, allowing players to try some of the game's multiplayer modes and maps.[61] They made several major gameplay adjustments after hearing feedback from players participating in these tests.[62] The official TitanfallTwitter account, controlled by EA rather than Respawn, also helped promote the game by suggesting it to Twitter users who indicated they were looking for games to play.[63] It was also used to mock its competitors.[64] Players who purchased Battlefield 1 and this game also had exclusive access to a Titan skin inspired by World War One.[65]
At E3 2016, Respawn announced that all the updates and downloadable content would be free for all players. Inspired by Evolve's free maps model, the team hoped this approach would make players more satisfied with the full-priced package.[52][66] Respawn supported the game with multiple pieces of downloadable content in the first year after the game's release, including:
Reception[edit]
Titanfall 2 received 'generally favorable' reviews, according to review aggregatorMetacritic.[73][74][75]GamesRadar selected it as their game of the year, while PC Gamer chose it as their shooter of the year.[84][85]
The game's plot received mixed reviews. Nic Rowen of Destructoid found it had an unsurprising and 'by the number' sci-fi plot. He was disappointed by the campaign's five-hour length and noted that the emotional core of the story lacked development.[76]Game Informer's Javy Gwaltney compared the plot to a 'buddy comedy' remarking positively that BT is a relatable character.[78] Peter Paras of Game Revolution praised the interesting story, despite feeling the nine-chapter story is basic. He also liked BT's personality, calling it a 'straight-laced 'I take what you say literally' thinking machine'. He noted the interactions with the Titan successfully added more context to the game's world and setting.[79] Jon Denton of Eurogamer praised BT's character, saying its lines were skillfully written.[77]GameSpot's Mike Mahardy felt the story was poorly written and that it ended abruptly.[80] Arthur Gies of Polygon felt the narrative was subpar, with mediocre voice acting, 'corny names' for characters, and insufficient context for players to truly remember the story.[83]
Titanfall 2's gameplay received critical acclaim. Rowen described it as 'frantic and exhilarating', saying the fluidity of gameplay further enhanced the quality of the single-player campaign.[76] Gwaltney shared similar thoughts, saying that no matter how players chose to approach a mission, combat or stealth, it was satisfying. Furthermore, he found controlling the Titan an interesting experience that resembles MechWarrior and Star Fox.[78] Mahardy also felt that player movement controls remained 'invigorating'. He liked the Titan combat more for often presenting 'David versus Goliath' scenarios. Mahardy and described the game as a 'thinking man''s shooter, adding it required players to think tactically instead of simply having good reflexes.[80] David Houghton of GamesRadar praised the game's controls and movement options for turning many seemingly gameplay obstacles and barriers into opportunities for players to manipulate.[81] Chris Thursten of PC Gamer praised the game's variety of weapons and their sounds and the 'brilliant' freedom of movement.[82]
Rowen praised the level design, which he found one of the game's 'real stars'. He was impressed by the variety of settings and set pieces featured in each level and praised the design for having tricky environments for transversal encouraging free movements. He singled out 'Effect and Cause' as one of the game's most imaginative levels, comparing it favorably with Portal.[76] Paras remarked that two of the game's chapters were extremely impressive, and that they '[re-examine] level design in most action games'. Thursten also enjoyed these levels but added that not all of them share this level of creativity. He wished some of the novel concepts introduced 'stuck around longer' during his playtime.[82] Gwaltney liked the flexibility of the game's campaign, which provides players plenty of freedom to handle combat encounters. He also appreciated the inclusion of the game's puzzles, which requires players to 'think outside the box'.[78] Both Paras and Houghton liked the levels for incorporating elements of Pilot and Titan gameplay. Paras said it added variety to the package,[79] and Houghton felt it improved the game's pacing, making it very 'exhilarating' to play.[81] Mahardy admired the pacing, attributing its success to the fact that players can switch BT's loadouts to handle various combat situations, presenting a different dynamic from multiplayer.[80] Brandin Tyrrel of IGN admired the game's sense of scale and map design, where each level stage felt large but at the same time linear enough to direct players' progression.[11]
The game's multiplayer was also acclaimed. Rowen described it as 'more than solid' and praised the more complex and extended progression system for rectifying Titanfall's lack of long-term appeal. While Titan's customization became more limited, he felt this was a necessary change to make the Titan combat deeper and more rewarding. He noted there were many 'smart' gameplay adjustments and design changes that emphasize players' skills, but he was disappointed there were not enough modes featuring AI opponents.[76] Gwaltney, however, felt there were no significant changes to the multiplayer, but there were sufficient subtle design adjustments making it more refined and improved than its predecessor. He still found the progression system lacking in substance. He appreciated the new gadgets, which make the game more tactical. He commented positively on the game modes' structure, which prompts all types of players to engage in teamwork.[78] Paras criticized the multiplayer for being unforgiving, though he enjoyed some of the game modes, like Bounty Hunt.[79] Mahardy praised the six new Titans types for being easy to learn and difficult to master. As the six Titan types have distinct controls and attack schemes, Mahardy noted that combat resembles that of a fighting game and multiplayer online battle arenas games.[80] Tyrrel praised the overhauled rodeo mechanic, which promoted teamwork, and Boosts, which make the game more balanced.[11] Gies described some of the design changes as 'odd' and 'difficult to understand', including the rodeo mechanic which he found mostly useless. In addition, he criticized the maps for being too confined, and not fitting with the game's fast gameplay.[83]
Critics generally had a positive reception to the overall package. Rowen admired the game for being an imaginative and creative shooter, one that no other competitor in the market can achieve.[76] Gwaltney described the game as a 'must-play' that unlike most other shooters offered a complete package with both a fully-fledged single-player campaign and a refined multiplayer.[78] Paras felt that Titanfall 2 successfully delivered on the promises made by the first game.[79] Tyrrel also shared similar opinions, calling the game a rare and exceptional title that improved on every aspect of its predecessor.[11] Houghton called the game the year's surprise, describing it as one of the most 'creative and rewarding FPS in recent memory'.[81] Thursten worried that Titanfall 2 would suffer from a short lifespan like its predecessor due to the same poor release timing. He noted the single-player campaign was the game's true highlight.[82] Denton strongly recommended the game and gave it the highest possible rating, but he shared the same concern as Thursten.[77]
Sales[edit]
Electronic Arts expected the game to sell approximately nine to ten million units in its first year of release.[86] However, financial analysts predicted the game's sales would be substantially disappointing due to EA's decision to release the game in late October, a period between the launch of EA's own Battlefield 1, and Activision's Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Despite that, EA expressed no concern about the release window, as they felt that the player base of Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2 would not overlap.[87]
The game was the fourth best-selling retail game in the UK in its week of release, behind Battlefield 1, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Special Edition, and FIFA 17. Its first-week sales only reached a quarter of the launch-week sales of Titanfall despite Titanfall 2 being a multi-platform release. Digital sales of the game were also down, only reaching a quarter of its predecessor's sales.[88] According to the NPD Group, the game was the ninth best-selling game in October 2016 and the fifth best-selling game in November 2016.[89] In their earnings call for the third quarter of the 2017 fiscal year, EA stated that the game's sales fell below expectations.[90] However, EA COO and CFO Blake Jorgensen went on to say the company was pleased with the positive reviews the game received and expected it to have strong sales into the next fiscal year.[91] According to Zampella, Titanfall 2 sold well and was successful, but it could have sold better.[92] In January 2017, financial firm Morgan Stanley estimated that the game had sold 4 million units.[93]
Accolades[edit]
Sequel[edit]
In October 2016, Zampella said the team would like to deliver more experiences for the player set within the franchise, though a trilogy was not planned.[103] When publisher Electronic Arts acquired Respawn Entertainment, however, it was revealed that a new mainline Titanfall title was in development.[104]
A battle royale spin-off game, Apex Legends, which takes place in the same universe, was released on February 4, 2019. The game's lead developer, Drew McCoy stated 'There are some people who think there are too many battle royale games or it's a fad, the world thinks we're making Titanfall 3 and we're not - this is what we're making.'
